Begin with the end in mind.
Recognize the forgotten
And encourage the lowly
It is no secret you too are hurt
That you cry while you lay in bed
Your heart is in your stomach
every time you wake
Do words mend pain
Or does a touch heal wounds
Could an ear to listen be enough
Better yet, if we too are hurt
How can we of lowly stature show we care
Believe the best
For these hurts and sore experiences…
They may help restore the broken
Live to serve others
Begin with the end in mind.

Very nice. Begin with the end in mind is the principle of everything is created twice. First in thought and “blueprint” and second when the blueprint is implemented. Much like buidling a house…you must first create the blueprint before you can successfully and effectively build the house.
This princple can be used in relationships too. Each person and together as a couple should bulid communication lines so a blueprint or foundation is designed before you acutally begin construction. There will be more success in planning and implementation if each person looks at how they can serve the other person, rather than focus on being served.
Exercising this princple encourages communication, honesty, open mindedness, and probably most importantly self confidence.
Begin with the end in mind. Envision it, then execute. A good principle, a great poem.
Nicely done.
Why thank you. I like how you gave a meaningful comment. Your feedback is welcomed. Thank you Scott! I believe the best for you.
Powerful Writing… The two lines that stick out to me are the “Begin with the end in mind” Loosely read to me as we are all mortal and all going to feel pain and die…. and then I admire this constuction as well….It is no secret you too are hurt
That you cry while you lay in bed.. I believe everyone, admitedly or not, has had this moment surface in their lifes for whatever reason, and if we as a civilization could just focus on our similarities and not the differences of thought or background we whould be so much better of…
Thank You for more inspirational words… I am so glad we found each other… Great Days ahead for you and all you touch…
